Copyright warning: A subject in this image is protected by copyright.
This image features an architectural or artistic work, photographed from a public space in South Africa. The Copyright Act 1978 of South Africa (as at 18 June 2002), section 15(3), states: "The copyright in an artistic work shall not be infringed by its reproduction or inclusion in a cinematograph film or a television broadcast or transmission in a diffusion service, if such work is permanently situated in a street, square or a similar public place." A diffusion service is defined in section 1(1) as "a telecommunication service of transmissions consisting of sounds, images, signs or signals, which takes place over wires or other paths provided by material substance and intended for reception by specific members of the public; and diffusion shall not be deemed to constitute a performance or a broadcast or as causing sounds, images, signs or signals to be seen or heard; and where sounds, images, signs or signals are displayed or emitted by any receiving apparatus to which they are conveyed by diffusion in such manner as to constitute a performance or a causing of sounds, images, signs or signals to be seen or heard in public, this shall be deemed to be effected by the operation of the receiving apparatus." Since section 15(3) does not mention photographs, there is no freedom of panorama exemption in South Africa that would permit photographs of artistic works to be taken without infringing the copyright in the works. Recent developments See Freedom of Panorama ZA and meta:Wikimedia South Africa/Copyright Amendement Bill for updates on the efforts by South African Wikimedians to have freedom of panorama introduced in the country. See Commons:CRT/South Africa#Freedom of panorama forSouth Africa more information. If a copyrighted architectural or artistic work is contained in this image and it is a substantial reproduction, this photo cannot be licensed under a free license, and will be deleted. Framing this image to focus on the copyrighted work is also a copyright violation. Before reusing this content, ensure that you have the right to do so.

Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: View from the Carlton Centre - Johannesburg's inner city went into decline when the ‘Money’ relocated to Sandton and the destitute moved in. Certain parts are still ‘no-go’ areas, such as Hillbrow, but Bramfontein and the city centre are clawing their way back to respectability. Seen from the panorama deck of Johannesburg’s tallest building the city does remind me of the dystopia portrayed in the movie Blade Runner (1982). |
